Lilly Sarti: three acts for an adaptable wardrobe

An adaptable wardrobe needs pieces that can change their relationship with one another. Lilly Sarti’s Kosmo.Polítes used that idea as the structure for a three-part presentation at SPFW N60.

WAYFARER’s October 2025 account placed the show at Teatro Iguatemi. The collection’s title referred to a combination of the Greek terms for cosmos and citizen, using belonging as a conceptual frame rather than a literal dress code.

Three ways of arranging the clothes

The opening act introduced interchangeable pieces and a sense of collective composition. A lighting treatment resembling a chessboard then framed the second section, where fitted and wider volumes, tailoring and more sensual forms appeared as complementary contrasts.

The final act drew on Japonisme through silhouettes and ways of wearing the garments. Practicality remained part of the interpretation: the clothes were intended to adjust to the wearer rather than establish one fixed persona.

Antônio Frajado’s styling and Dindi Hojah’s beauty work supported that movement between registers. The source described the clothes’ fluidity as more important than a uniform treatment of every model.

The presentation is historical, not an announcement of a forthcoming collection. Its useful subject is the wardrobe as a set of possible relationships. A piece becomes more versatile when the designer considers not only its individual shape but also what it can do beside another garment.
